How Different States Handle Student Complaints

Note: This is a regulator-only webinar

Are student complaints becoming more complex—or just harder to manage? Join a dynamic panel of regulators from California, Connecticut, Georgia, and Ohio as they share real-world insights on how their states handle student complaints and what you can learn from their approaches. The session will kick off with a cross-state comparison of complaint processes, spotlighting both common practices and key differences. From there, panelists will dive into several hypothetical but realistic complaint scenarios, discussing how they would respond and inviting attendees to share their perspectives. You’ll walk away with practical strategies and fresh ideas to strengthen your complaint-handling process and improve outcomes for students and institutions alike.
